yes, this is on windows.
Currently removing the data directory and the postgresql user is not
optional. It fails and does not remove those two items.
There must be 30+ registry keys still there as well.
What I am looking to do is to delete any registry entry:
- that has a data value matching the pattern '*postgres*'
- that has a directory value matching the pattern
'*postgres*'
- that has a key name matching the pattern '*postgres*'
thanks

are you talking about the MS Windows installer from
EnterpriseDB? about the only clue was the mention in passing of
'registry'.
deleting the postgresql 'data' directory and the postgres user
account should be optional.
